The place was much bigger than expected and spacious. Great for us travellers with large luggages. Clean apartment with a good variety and quality of amenities provided. Check in was seamless - Michelle even let us drop our bags when we reached way before the check in time, and let us check in early so we could get to explore the rest of the town. Love the way the door is locked - so fuss free!! Facilities were good, there’s washing machine, induction stove with pots and pans, kitchenware and complimentary Nespresso capsules and coffee and tea. I also love their hot chocolate!!! (bloom) ☕️ Love that there is a backyard area which we can sun/dry off our clothes with the drying rack in the room. There’s also hair dryer, sufficient hangers, iron and ironing board and TV with YouTube connection. Parking space was very sufficient, great porch and quite near the beach (walking distance to the hot water beach and also to shops, restaurants and supermarkets) Overall great experience and would highly recommend this place to couples and families looking to stay in Taupo. Thanks Michelle for being a great host! 😇

Beautifully designed and furnished, all the little details thought of. Like a holiday within a holiday! The spa was perfect and the garden lovely. Even though the main house is located just over the garden, we felt we had complete privacy and comfort.

    Our hosts were absolutely amazing. Their bed and breakfast was absolutely 5 stars and we can’t wait to stay again. Location is great, only 10mins from the centre of town where the majority of local activities are based with plenty of food and drink options. We also had breakfast catered for! The b&b itself is very spacious and comfortable, providing a very intimate setting with no more than a few guests at the one time.
